          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: large autocorrect lists: typing in 'Replace' field is
                    slower than 'With' field
          Severity: normal
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Windows (All)
          Reporter: ba...@quipo.it
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.6.0.4 release
         Component: Linguistic
           Product: LibreOffice

issue is only noticeable when you work with large auocorrect replacement lists.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1- have a large autocorrect list. If you need one take this file ( attachment
57846 ) which is an italian autocorrect database and put in the "autocorr"
subfolder of your user profile (
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile )

2- open Writer and click "Tools/Autocorrect options/Replace"

3- start typing anything fast in the "Replace" field, you'll will notice some
delay between keyboard hits and text visualization

4- type anything fast in the "With" field, no delay at all

CURRENT BEHAVIOUR: typing in the "Replace" field is slower than the "With"
field

DESIRED BEHAVIOUR: same typing speed.

I suppose that the slowness of the "replace" field is due to the fact that
while you type the list automatically scrolls down alphabetically to insert the
new entry in the proper position.

If you have few autocorrect entries you won't notice the different speed but
when you deal with long lists a slight delay become recognizable.

----

a speed improvement has been already obtained in the past during 3.6 master
development. see this committ: 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=3da2a6a58784a3c607ea4e440865478f1a4fe56e

anyway I wonder if a further speed up is yet possible, since a slight annoying
delay is still noticeable in current LibO 4.1.4.2 and 4.3alpha
